Mei's Foodie Hub — Restaurant in Carlsbad

Looking for a fantastic Asian food experience? This place delivers! From the moment you step in, you're greeted with a pleasant ambiance and incredibly fast service – seriously, they're lightning-quick! It makes for a truly enjoyable dining experience.

The food itself is where this restaurant truly shines. Every dish we tried was bursting with flavor and expertly prepared. We even encountered a minor hiccup with undercooked string beans, but the staff handled it flawlessly, returning them perfectly cooked in no time. That's the kind of attentive service that elevates a dining experience.

The Vegan Miso and Home Style Tofu were particular highlights. Both were absolutely delicious and surprisingly generous in portion size – perfect for sharing! You definitely get your money's worth here.

One minor point of confusion was the speed with which the side of white rice arrived, practically before our main dishes. It felt a little premature to have plain rice without anything to accompany it. While the service was otherwise impeccable, this timing quirk stood out.

Overall, this restaurant is a must-try for Asian food lovers and anyone seeking a satisfying meal with excellent service. The generous portions, delicious food, and efficient staff make it a top choice. Just maybe ask them to hold the rice until your main...

Was really excited for a new place in town and the photos online were very appealing BUT the reality was subpar mall food with dodgy service. This review encompasses several dine-in visits where we experienced similar issues; entrees coming out before appetizers, entrees arriving one at a time with a 10 minute gap between leaving some to eat alone or wait out of politeness, dishes not seasoned with care - too salty or not fresh tasting, dubious fried rice that seemed like just streamed white rice with soy sauce with frozen peas & carrots (bland, mushy, not fried or freshly prepared). Every chicken entree had stringy meat, odd tasting with questionable body parts, the chicken tenders seemed identical to what I buy for my kids at the grocery store. The salmon poke bowl swimming in mayo and sauce, barely any sashimi or decent vegetables mostly rice and sauce for $15. And don’t be surprised if you have to wave down staff to get drink refills, condiments or the check. They should rename it to...

I usually don't write reviews but once in a while an experience is much worse than a typical bad experience that I feel it's warranted.

This was by far my worst Chinese food experience.

I ordered the combination plate and it was just dripping in oil. At first it wasn't bad but I was getting the noodles from the top which wasn't drenched in oil. by the time I got to the bottom it was like oil soup.

My wife and daughter ordered the teriyaki bowls. They couldn't even finish it. They had basically added soo much sauce that the rice was swimming in it. It was basically teriyaki rice soup. My wife thinks they drowned it because she tasted duck in there not chicken. Maybe they we trying to mask it. They just ate the vegetables off the top and we left hungry.

Also not noted is the HIDDEN "convenience fee" when I got the bill. I suspected it's for using a credit card. Shameful

By far worst experience.... heed...
